All is quiet on the home front but hectic in the kitchen LOL. I have been very busy with organizing the cakes I told you about earlier.
I set myself a massive challenge for this venture and so far so good... It is such a satisfying thing when an idea just seems to pull together.
I know it isn't cloth related but it still pertains to dolls (that's my story and I am sticking to it)...
I am so excited I just wanted to share the progress pics...
I took a paper mache mannequin and did a foil overlay which I taped up and cut away. I then taped this closed and stuffed til firm enough to hold its shape.

Then I covered in sugar paste and let dry, finally I dusted with some luster dusts to give a lovely glow
This next picture is a test run to make sure the mannequin top will fit and to check sizing of cakes

I have made these awesome scrolls with a flexible icing and these will be like appliques on the final dress, cant wait!!!
